newbie here........

Hi everyone! My name is Michelle. I am 32 years old, and I have been overweight since middle school. I am now 5'9" and just over 300 whopping pounds. I have been reading and researching the lapband for some time now. I've always been too scared to take it too far though. My brother was banded on Aug. 27th and is doing fantastically! It's so neat to have someone so close to me who is doing well post-surgery. I am attending a seminar this morning, 11/8, at 8:30 a.m. Very excited! I'm sure I'll be back afterward to post more! Thanks for letting me share. :blink: I look forward to talking with y'all.

Well, I made it through the seminar. What a wealth of information. I do admit that now I'm a bit more nervous and confused than before I attended the seminar... but I'm not sure why. I have an initial appointment on the 13th, this Thursday, to meet with the surgeon, discuss options, etc. Anyhow... that's where I'm at! I can do this... right?! oye... :rolleyes2:
